Savasana Workshop

In yoga, we frequently say things like, "play with your edge" or "go towards things that challenge you." Most of the time, when we say things like this, we are talking about fairly fiery poses such as warrior III or standing splits. However, fully committing to a resting posture creates its own kind of challenge, which is what this workshop will explore.

We'll begin with a savasana, then go through two mini-practices with a savasana in the middle, followed by a 20-30 minute savasana at the end (which is actually the length of time this posture is held in most non-western practices). Through this "intensive rest" we'll explore the restlessness of our own minds, and the simple rejuvenating power of the natural breath.
